TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a fused pyrimidine derivative having excellent antagonistic activity against gonadotropin releasing hormone.

BACKGROUND ART

Secretion of anterior pituitary hormones is regulated by peripheral hormones secreted from target organs of the respective hormones and by secretion-promoting or secretion-inhibiting hormones secreted from the hypothalamus, which is the upper central organ of the anterior lobe of the pituitary (hereinafter, these hormones are collectively called “hypothalamic hormones” in the present specification). So far, the existence of nine species of hypothalamic hormones has been confirmed, including, for example, thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH), gonadotropin releasing hormone [GnRH, sometimes called LH-RH (luteinizing hormone releasing hormone)] and the like. These hypothalamic hormones are believed to show their actions via the receptors that are considered to exist in the anterior lobe of the pituitary, and analysis of the receptor gene which is specific to these hormones, including for humans, is being made. Accordingly, antagonists or agonists specifically and selectively acting on these receptors should control the action of the hypothalamic hormones and the secretion of anterior pituitary hormones. As a result, such antagonists or agonists are expected to be useful in preventing or treating anterior pituitary hormone-dependent diseases.

As the compounds having GnRH-antagonizing activity, there are known GnRH-derived linear peptides (Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2), a cyclic hexapeptide derivative (Patent Document 3), a bicyclic peptide derivative (Non-Patent Document 1) and the like.

The compound of the invention is also useful in regulation of male and female reproduction (e.g., agent for birth control, menstrual cycle regulator, etc.). The compound of the invention can be also used as a contraceptive for both male and female, and further as an ovulation inducing agent for female. The compound of the invention can be used in prevention and/or treatment of infertility by using its rebound effect after cessation of medication. The compound can be also used as a prophylactic and/or therapeutic agent for benign or malignant tumors which are sex hormone-independent and LH—RH-sensitive.

To chlorosulfonic acid (45.0 g), 1-methoxy-2-nitrobenzene (13.4 g) was added dropwise with ice cooling, and the mixture was stirred for 10 minutes as it was and further stirred for 1 hour at room temperature. The reaction solution was poured onto crushed ice, and extracted twice with diethyl ether. The collected organic layers were dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure to give crude 4-methoxy-3-nitrobenzensulfonyl chloride as an oily matter.

While stirring a solution of N-ethyl aniline (10.6 g) and sodium hydrogen carbonate (14.7 g) in THF (50 ml) and water (15 ml), a solution of the above-obtained oily matter in THF (50 ml) was added thereto at room temperature, and the mixture was stirred overnight as it was. The reaction solution was poured into water, and extracted twice with ethyl acetate. The collected organic layers were dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified with silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate (3:1 to 1:1)), and crystallized from diisopropyl ether/diethyl ether to give the desired product (13.4 g) as crystals.

A solution of 2-chloro-5-((6-methyl-3,4-dihydro-1(2H)-quinolinyl)sulfonyl)aniline (505 mg), methyl 2-isocyanatobenzoate (399 mg) and DMAP (275 mg) in THF (9 ml) was shaken for 2 hours at room temperature, and then a trisamine resin (Argonaut Technologies, Inc., 4.36 mmol/g, 516 mg) was added thereto, and the mixture was further shaken for 15 hours at room temperature. The resin was filtered off, and then washed with acetonitrile. The filtrate and a washing liquor were combined and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was heated for 30 minutes at 80° C., and then subjected to silica gel column chromatography. The fraction eluted with ethyl acetate/hexane (1:2 to 2:1) was concentrated under reduced pressure. Thus obtained crystals were collected by filtration to give the desired product (512 mg).

(2) Production of CHO (Chinese Hamster Ovary) Cell Membrane Fraction Containing Human GnRH Receptor

Human GnRH receptor-expressing CHO cells were cultured until the cells were reached a 90% confluent state in a T-150 flask. The cells were separated using 0.02% EDTA-PBS and were centrifuged at 500×g for 5 minutes. A homogenate buffer for cells (10 mM NaHCO₃, 1 mM EDTA, 1 mM PMSF, 0.5 μg/mL Pepstatin, 2 μg/mL Leupeptin, pH 7.4) was added to the cell pellet, and the mixture was homogenized with a Polytron homogenizer. After centrifugation of the homogenate at 4° C. and at 1000×g for 10 minutes, the supernatant was placed in an ultracentrifuge tube and was centrifuged at 4° C. and at 49,300×g for 1 hour to obtain a precipitate of a membrane fraction. This precipitate was suspended in an assay buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, 150 mM NaCl, 5 mM EDTA, pH 7.4) and then dispensed and stored at −80° C., so that the suspension can be thawed every time it is taken for use.

(3) Measurement of the Binding Inhibitory Rate of 125I-Leuprorelin

A ¹²⁵I-leuprorelin binding assay was carried out using 200 μL of an assay buffer containing 10 μg of human GnRH receptor membrane fraction, 800 μM of ¹²⁵I-leuprorelin and 10 nM of the testing compound.

The non-specific binding radioactivity was measured in the presence of 1 μM of non-labeled leuprorelin. After leaving the mixture to stand at room temperature for 1 hour, 125I-leuprorelin was captured on a GF/C filter (PerkinElmer, Inc.), and the filter was washed with ice-cold 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4) using a cell harvester. After drying the filter, a liquid scintillation cocktail for microplate was added, and the membrane-bound radioactivity was measured using a TopCount.

The value of (TB-SB)/(TB-NSB)×100 (SB: radioactivity upon addition of the compound, TB: maximum binding radioactivity, NSB: non-specific binding radioactivity) was calculated to determine the binding inhibitory rate in the presence of 10 nM of each testing material.
